Favorite Books for Fall & Winter

We love reading in our house, so I am very excited to have collaborated with Beth Gaskill (AKA, Miss Beth) from Big City Readers to create a huge list of fall and winter book favorites. Big City Readers is such a great research based education company that helps parents and kids learn to love reading and the kids and I always love her book recommendations. With so many fun holidays and seasons coming up, I wanted to give you and your family a great list of new books you can all enjoy together! There are even a few videos thrown in. These are great if you need a few minutes to get something done - just turn on a storybook and your kids can listen and watch while you work!

The girls are really into the Halloween books right now, but I know soon enough it’ll be time to dig out the Christmas ones! If you loved Miss Beth’s suggestions, you can get her free download HERE. It will contain 3 different ways to help your child learn the ABC’s with easy, every day activities! Have fun!
